Re: WIP Italian Deli in UDK
Thanks for the tip. I usually try to avoid those just because it still shaves a couple tris off the overall tri-count. I think you're mostly seeing that in the Hi-Res models because I neglected to get any screengrabs of my Lo-Res wireframes. I know I've still got it going on in a few places (I wasn't too concerned about… -
Re: Old Violin
I think you've mis-spent your polygon budget. Most of the polygons appear to be in the neck & the knobs, leaving the body with a blocky shape. I'm also not certain that you needed to model the 'rim' around the body; it doesn't contribute much to the silhouette, and a decent normal map (or bake) should be enough. At any… -
Re: Mental Ray Lightning problems. 3D Max.
Yess!!!! Mr Frags it's works! It's look like that: I searched web for double sided option, 'cause when I rendered my small, test scene, I can't see back of plane's. I just uncheck the "BackFace Culling" in "Advanced Rendering option" in Arch&Design Material. And yes, i found information about MIA material in web, sorry… -
Re: Eskimo Seal Shaman - WIP
So tomorrow will be the last day of my assignment working on this character. She still isn't as nice as I'd like, but I can always keep working on her after I've submitted her. As much as I would have loved to spend a lot of time on texturing, rigging her and animating her took priority. Tomorrow morning I'll hopefully get… -
Re: (Human readable) UV Mapping Modo; Trying to make a hand-drawn face
Duuuuude :D THANKS! I came here (it's 5:30am >-> ) to edit my post stating that I'd decided to just go with spheres for eyes (standard method) and had figured out how to make it all work in Maya (YouTube) and simply had to apply it to Modo somehow (still trying to figure out how to export textures from Modo, preferably… -
Re: [Portfolio] Andrea Orioli // 3D artist
Back from holidays...thanks for all your comments and critiques guys, i appreciate them very much. As soon as i have some spare time i'll put hand to it again, and maybe i'll set the Character page as default, to "throw art in people's face" more like junkie xl said :D About the centered layout, it was my original idea,… -
Re: Advice and help on head sculpt
corners of the lips on your model have round shape. for a smile the corners should have a sharp cut between the upper and lower lips. yellow indicated where you need a sharp crease and blue indicated where you need to bulge out the flesh due to muscle tension. to me it looks like your model has bad topology that doesnt… -
Re: [3DSMax]- KeyHydra FREE WIthout DRM for 3DSMax 2020, 2021 & 2022
@Musashidan Yes indeed, linear mode can be used for adding control edges to a sub d modeling workflow. In fact that is the way i was working before InsetSg existed. I was using "Quad modeling + Quad chamfer + TurboSmooth". But now that InsetSG can handle triangles with good results i do sometime nasty geometry that look as… -
Re: Retopology for game models
Depends if you are going to use normal maps or not. Normal mapping works better with good topology, to avoid seams. See this thread: Understanding averaged normals and ray projection/Who put waviness in my normal map? Also if the model is going to be deformed, like an animated character with smoothly-bending limbs, then… -
Re: Marrow: My first serious Mudbox sculpt
Can we see a wireframe for the Low Poly? For an absolute first attempt this isn't too bad, you're right. You can be proud of this for picking up mudbox and actually making something instead of giving up. But if you want to improve, there's a bit you can work on in future sculpts. Accurate material definition is super…
